Treasure Map Confusion

Original Post by User:
So far in game I've found 2 maps, 1 and 4. Map one is fairly easy to decipher but when the chest wasn't anywhere to be found i consulted my prima guide. I've double and triple checked myself and i know I'm in the right place but there's no chest. Had the same problem with map 4... but now i have both in my inventory. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong or if having two maps on you might cause a problem?? Help me please.

ive been having the same problem. i think i read somewhere that one of the first patches caused a glitch in treasure maps where the chests wont appear. im gonna see if the new patch helped but it was listed as one of the fixes.
